Datajack

The almost-universal mark of the cyber-conscious user, standard datajacks allow input and output to certain pieces of cyberware and gear. Datajacks allow the user to cybernetically interface with properly equipped gear such as cyberdecks, remote-control decks and vehicles with datajack ports, so that the user can manipulate them, issue commands and so forth. Datajacks allow the user to mentally access headware memory. Contents of softs can also be downloaded into headware memory through a datajack, Knowsofts cannot be accessed through a datajack without a knowsoft link, datasofts cannot be accessed without a display or image link, and activesofts cannot be accessed without skillwires. Data fed into a datajack (from a cyberdeck, tridlinked cybercam, vehicle and so on) can in turn be fed Into a display link, image link or headware memory. Deckers usually implant datajacks in their temples to access higher-brain functions, while riggers usually have them behind and below the ears, where they access the submandibular glands and lower brain. It is not unusual for some people to have more than one datajack.
